My first hunch is that you are entering an invalid code for the room you want to enter, but I tried this and YaY Ultimate exits with the error message "Fail to post test word".
The codebase is the actual URL to the chess server and usually should be
http://yog80.games.scd.yahoo.com/yogTry again and before you hit shorcut of winboard 4_2_7b on your screen, tell me exactly what you see in the dos prompt window. If you provide a picture will be better.
Also, try different room code and see how it goes.
Also, we'll be able to help you better if you tell us step by step what you are doing.
